Hello,
I am a bit desperate as its getting annoying now.
I have a philips LX8000sa.
it is only a couple of months old and when I play normal retail movies they play fine but when I play my own authored DVD-r movies they hop skip and jump. never in the same place and they tend to do it half way through.

I have tried the same disk on my stand alone panasonic dvd recorder and they play perfect, I have tried them on two other stand alone dvd players and they play perfect.
I have contacted philips and they say quality of the recording and I contacted currys and they say have you cleaned the lens.
One one retail movie, saving private ryan it skipped once philips say this is normal as most disk are dual layer and its going over to the second layer.
So what is the reason for the dvd-r's skipping?
any help
thanks
